Questions to Ponder for Our Final Class Meeting
Please give these questions some serious thought. We will discuss your thoughts and feelings at our final class meeting. I hope you have had both some uplifting moments and some challenging ones during your Ed. Futures experience and have at least considered some ideas and viewpoints that are new for you. I hope you will be well prepared to share your ideas with your classmates during our last meeting together.

1. What have you learned in the class that has had the most impact on you? Your responses can include concepts you liked or disliked, that your agreed with or disagreed with, and that you felt either positive or negative about.

2. What ideas, concepts, or possibilities have you re-thought, changed your mind about, or are considering more deeply? Your responses can include things you feel better bout now or those you feel disturbed about.

3. What were for you the most memorable moments or experiences in this class?

4. What things you learned about in the class are your greatest excitements and your greatest concerns?

5. Now, you become the "Futurist": What "mega-trends" or major trends do you see for the future of planet Earth and its human community - both positive and negative?
